When a baby kangaroo leaves it's Mother's pouch, it lets out a cry when it gets separated and cannot find her. The mother kangaroo is able to distinguish her baby's cry and searches for it. Justin Furstenfeld of Blue October said, "Kangaroo Cry" was written for the troops having to leave their families behind. Something he witnessed in airports while touring and was moved to write this beautiful song. In the song, "she" would be a solider's daughter being left behind. As the child loses sight of her parent, she lets out a "kangaroo cry" in hopes of being found.
